Why are some people “obsessed” with horror movie

Question

Kristian · Accepted Answer

Horror in general is a form of thrill seeking. Movies and other entertainment allows you the thrill without putting your own life in danger.

Bilge · Answer

Growing up in a little seaside town, supernatural was our only entertainment as kids. There were only two TV channels and we were sharing the movies streaming on Sundays and tell each other the next day. They were mostly horror movies involving brave kids like "It" and made us more fearless about horror stuff. Also it's the widest genre in cinema, its beyond imagination, makes you feel your heartbeat, gives you a relaxation afterwards, mostly good soundtrack, lots of fun, great creativy on make up and costumes most of the time and perfect travel into dark parts of human mind. Also, horror fanbase is the best 🥳
